At 6-foot-6 and 241-pounds, Ryan Morris is a unique tight end prospect. Very few high school football players have that kind of size at the tight end position and Morris' big build is one reason coaches are making him a priority.

Duke verbally offered the Barnegat, N.J., prospect on April 18 while Morris and his teammates were on spring break. He had spoken to coach Jim Knowles prior to receiving the offer so it didn't catch him totally off guard. Nonetheless, it was a pleasant development.
